“I recognize every child’s unalienable right to be free”
“schools value quite children over loud ones”
“ They are the children who make trouble at school – the troublemakers. They have been my teachers and, in the pages, they will become yours.”
“He loved the freedom of learning just enough to hate the constraints of schooling”
“I ask that you try to view them as canaries tasked with protecting the miners, young people who are being sacrificed, ostensibly for our collective benefit”
These quotes are from “Troublemakers” by Shalaby. They stuck out to me while reading. They speak about the right to be free and a child’s right to it. They also speak about how who we perceive to be troublemakers in classrooms to be the biggest teachers. They can help us reform the norms of classroom to make them for everyone.
